1440p is the sweet spot for monitors. Sony has already said if demand is there they’ll patch in 1440p and demand is definitely there. Technology is pretty early for monitors and games to run at 4K 120fps. Many games right now are still 60 fps. 1440p at 120 fps is much easier on everything right now.
It will probably be a couple years for game companies and monitor/tv companies to catch up to what the PS5 is capable of. A $1k monitor today will probably be around $400 in 18-24 months.

I've played this game on a ton of different displays so I'll leave my input here, take it or leave it idc.
60 inch vizio led tv 1080p terrible $700 10 years ago
27 inch 1080p acer nitro ips monitor was great, good colors response time is fine, what I use now and have been for a year $250
43 inch tcl 43s525 4k tv was also very good, used this for months no issues $250
65 inch hisense H9g was also very good, no issues $1,000
55 inch lg cx oled, amazing so far, very good looking, smooth and responsive, no sign of burn in. Newer models are way better $1300
27 inch Viotek gft27db 1080p tn monitor, very fast resonse times, color was trash tho $250
34 inch monoprice 3440x1440 Va monitor, god awful ghosting, colors were great but hard to play on it $450I use to think playing on a monitor would make me better and it didn't. I have the TCL 43 inch and the acer in the same room next to each other and have went back and forth game after game and dont notice a big difference.
I think the biggest issue is people using junk monitors or [censored] tv's. A bad tv or monitor wont provide a good experience with this game, you need something decent. Input lag is key here, the higher it is the worse you'll bat. Next is response time

If you guys want a cheap alternative to the CX (which is undoubtedly one of the best TV’s on the market), tou can look into the LG Nanocell. It was HDMI 2.1 so it will do 4K @ 120Hz. Low refresh rate, fast response times. It’s not an extremely bright TV so it won’t look too good for dark gaming. But it does everything you would want your PS5 to do. It’s also an IPS panel so no risk of burn in.
The 48” is on sale right now at BB for 799$, the 55” for 899$.
I’m gonna be getting the 48” as my main gaming monitor and get the 65” CX as my main family TV with the very occasional gaming on it. Like others have said, the newer models have much better protection against burn in. If you play different games, watch different channels and such, shouldn’t be a problem

Got a nice LG 27" monitor for christmas and pretty much echo others sentiments about it being a game changer. Have a nice 55" LG OLED TV too that I bought in Aug as it was rated very well for gaming. Monitor kicks its [censored]. Might also be something to fact that I'm like 2 feet away from the monitor compared to on my couch with the TV too.....

Distance from the screen is everything. Can't compare a 24 or 27 inch monitor that you sit 2 feet away from to a 60 inch tv that you sit 8-10 feet away from

AOC U3277PWQU UHD Professional Monitor
Beautiful monitor for rpg games. Input lag is lacking. Bought monitor a year ago and used it few months. Input lag for show was not ideal according to specs , so bought new one. Dusted this monitor off when I got ps5. Games are looking great.

Yeah it's a 4k VA panel, games will look great on it but your input lag and response time are probably pretty bad on it

I can't even imagine playing on a big screen. Monitor is definitely the way to go.

Might be but ps5 doesn’t support 1440 and PS4 pro is the only PS4 supporting that resolution I run a 1080 p 27 inch monitor cause I know it will work fine with my ps5 even though 1080 for 27 in screen isn’t recommend

I would recommend reading up on the monitors that currently “trick” the PS5 into 1440p. Sony has already said they can patch in the 1440p option as they just want to sell TVs right now is why it’s not on there already but eventually will be.
